RAM Is Hitting 100%?
Feb 9, 2012
I dont know how common this problem is so i shall explain what happened first. I downloaded a .mkv file, which i saved into my downloads folder. Whenever i clicked into the folder where the file was stored my RAM automatically goes wild and hits 100% causing me to have to restart to do anything. I used to simply be able to avoid the folder and it would be fine, today i downloaded a picture and placed it also in my downloads folder. I am now experiancing the same problem whenever i so much as view the Downloads folder, even just hovering over the downloads folder without enterring is enough to make the RAM go wild.
It will not let me delete the folder containing the movie, or the picture. It simply says its busy gathering the required data to delete it and after 10 second the RAM is at 100% and its too late. My best guess is that the files are corrupt. So i ran TuneUp's Disc Doctor to scan the whole hard drive, it came back as clean, after defragging and cleaning up the registry, running virus scans and all the other features which TuneUp has i am still no closer to solving this.

My PC boots up, loads up my desktop and all my startup programs and then my monitor goes black, sometimes it restarts immediately, sometimes my monitor will be stuck in sleep mode while my pc is still on. This has been happening a couple of weeks now. I've check all over and so far the only "solution" is to turn off the power and remove the power cable from the tower for a few minutes, this only works temporarily, the next day I power it up, it had this problem again.

Last night my husband used his acer laptop successfully. Today when he went to use it the browser was open as usual to the yahoo home page. He hit the refresh button and the screen went black and the spinning circle is all that shows. He tried rebooting it and again nothing happens.

When I hit the left shift key, I get /.V,, but when I hit the right shift key, I get pori.can't access any of the secondary keys when hitting the shift +, getcapitals, etc. I have downloaded 2 different registry repair software programs, and tried the Ease of Use function multiple times without success. I am submitting this problem on a different computer because I can't log onto the internet w/o "@".

My computer has been acting like an idiot the last months, freezing a lot, sometimes resulting in a BSOD.
Notable programs that seems to initiate these freezes are Google Chrome and something as silly as pushing the start menu button and searching for something.
I've attached the zip from the diagnostics tool,
